The Sound Of Silence Ukulele - Simon & Garfunkel
[Verse 1]
Dm C
Hello darkness, my old friend
Dm
I've come to talk with you again
Bb F
Because a vision softly creeping
Bb F
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
Bb F
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Dm
Still remains
F C Dm
Within the sound* of silence
[Verse 2]
C
In restless dreams I walked alone
Dm
Narrow streets of cobblestone
Bb F
'neath the halo of a street lamp
Bb F
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
Bb F
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
Dm
That split the night
F C Dm
And touched the sound* of silence
[Verse 3]
C
And in the naked light I saw
Dm
Ten thousand people, maybe more
Bb F
People talking without speaking
Bb F
People hearing without listening
Bb F
People writing songs that voices never share
Dm
And no one dare
F C Dm
Disturb the sound* of silence
[Verse 4]
C
"Fools", said I, "You do not know
Dm
Silence like a cancer grows
Bb F
Hear my words that I might teach you
Bb F
Take my arms that I might reach you"
Bb F Dm
But my woooooords like silent raindrops fell
F C Dm
And echoed in the wells* of silence
[Verse 5]
C
And the people bowed and prayed
Dm
To the neon god they made
Bb F
And the sign flashed out its warning
Bb F
In the words that it was forming
Bb
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
F
Are written on the subway walls
Dm
And tenement halls"
F C Dm
And whispered in the sounds* of silence
Dm
